The final weekend of OpensimFest's music events kicks off at 9am SLT, that's 18.00 in Central Europe.
The first of three days of DJs singers, musicians and fun.

“…every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.”
There are bell towers without bells. Instead, they make use of an electronic device to simulate the sound of bells. Then there are bell towers with bells, but the ringing of the bells is automated. However, my college had real bells in it's bell tower, and real live bell-ringers -- student volunteers who were members of what I called the "Ding-A-Ling Club."

I thought of them as I assembled this outfit. The wings, harness and bra are from a set of clothes named Angel's Sorrow. Why would angels be sorrowful? Well, as it's said, "every time a bell rings, an angel gets its wings.” Is there currently a shortage of ding-a-lings in the world? As I look around me, I have to say, "I think not".

Oh HELLO

A word to the wise... Please use extreme caution if you choose to execute the console command "fcache clear". When I discovered this command I thought it was wonderful because it would unblock the ability to tp to another grid when it became blocked because you'd just been there earlier, and the map would report "region not found". Here is the reason. While fcache clear does a great job clearing the fcache, it has some other side effects. In my case it caused a discrepancy between my mariadb database, and my rezzed world, which resulted in the items in the cache i cleared being deleted in my database. I wasn't even aware until about a week later. To make matters worse I advised a friend to use fcache clear, and it destroyed his grid. We realized what was happening and stopped using it, and the problems went away, though he was quite angry with me for some time. So if you do use it, just be aware that problems may be down the road to show up yet, including many items missing textures from your database when you have to restore it for whatever reason. So I apologize to anyone I recommended to use this function. Don't do it. It's for your own good.

You will find the goodies at grid.opensimfest.com:8022:Chlorine

Colors!
This outfit features a colorful string necklace, a swirly colored tank top, and pop art patterned colorful sneakers. The sneakers, tank top, and hair are part of fatpacks, which are included in the box. (Because that's what we do here at oh HELLO -- "Outfits With Options" and all that).

Oh, and If you've been here before, you should know that the outfits based on shorts have been moved to the backroom of the skirt outfits shop. You will see that the oh HELLO greeter for that section is mildly disoriented by the move. Admittedly, she does have a hard job, but she gets free outfits!

oh HELLO: Home of the best dressed NPCs!

"I Am So".
Whether it's inattention, inertia, ineptitude, or some other kind of in-thing, all too many people are lacking a profile picture. Are you to be counted among these unfortunates? Or perhaps you have grown tired of your profile picture and are looking for something a bit more...different.

Problem solved. Come to our new Profile Picture Shop where you have your choice of countless (mainly because I'm too lazy to count) interesting, intriguing, inexplicable, or some other kind of in-thing, profile pictures.

Some call me weird, to which I say, "I am so!" These pictures may be suitable for display in your home if not your profile. Whatever the case, just be ready to say, "I am so!"

Visit the new Profile Picture Shop, especially if you are bored and have nothing better to do. (Which is kinda why I made the shop!)

Although natural risks exist in Novale's Ocean in Summer
The biggest risk is not even being able to enjoy Novale
If you tried to come and crashed, try the following :
Avatar>preferences>Sound & Media>Voice>UNCHECK Enable Voice
Do that prior to TP to Novale and enjoy but watch for jaws!

Does This Outfit Make Me Look Fat?
Dress. Fat pack. Hair. Fat pack. Sneakers? (Yes, sneakers!) Fat pack.

oh HELLO: Outfits With Options. Just don't wear all items in the fat packs all at once, and you will be fine.

There are nearly 25 merchants, hailing from multiple grids around the Hyperverse, that are participating with me in a massive sales event all week - sales prices and freebies galore. Supporting is caring, and encourages more quality creators to set up shop in opensim to provide us all with the things that make outfitting our avatars and regions easy. For instance, I'm not a clothing maker, so I get all my clothes from original opensim creators.

DJ Rosie has a fondness for the year 1984 because that's when she graduated so it goes without saying that tunes from 1984 are some of Rosie's favorite! The 80's, of course, brought us sooo many new musical styles including Hip Hop, New Wave, Grunge and Hair Metal! The 80's also brought colorful and fun fashions!! The 80's music and fashions live on today for all of us, whether we were there or not! Rosie has chosen special tunes from the top albums from 1984 by artists like Van Halen, Pretenders, U2, Bryan Adams, Prince, Queen, R.E.M., Talking Heads and Bruce Springsteen! Come to Hot Daddy's tonite and relive Rosie's favorites and yours too!

The merchants at OSFest2022 have banded together to create a unique merchants sales event from regions all across the grid! It starts right now on July 18th and runs through the 24th. The good thing in virtual world tech is inventory is never an issue but time can be... unless you get in world as soon as you can and start using those Merchant TP boards placed seemingly everywhere. Merchant Organizer Luna Lunaria gets things started with unbelievable giveaways!

Today starts my Opensim Appreciation Giveaway, and it's happening all this week at OSFest from Monday July 18th through Sunday July 24th. Everything I have out on my four merchant regions at OSFest will be free, with the exception of two structures still under construction that I will debut in the next month. Freebies include castles, entertainment venues, statues, landscaping, airships, and decor of all kinds - if you see it you can get it for free. I have four parcels on the OSFest grid: one on the Chlorine region and three on Unobtanium.

New release is out today.

I did some stylized garden gnomes.
You never know when or where you are going to need a gnome...they look mischievous when they are small or large, it's just the look they have on their, well, not faces. Maybe it's just their general demeanor :D.

I've included the textures in the package for those who like to mod them or mix and match the colours.

Have a great day!
